KT, one of the benefits of going to an elite school is the contacts you make. I'd love to have a former class mate become president even if he wasn't a great student . They call it diversity -g- mike

good point...W doesn't even understand Michigan's Admission programs -- where race/economic background are very small components of the overall decision making matrix...Yet, Michigan has created one of the most diverse and international student bodies in their undergraduate and graduate programs -- it mirrors America and that didn't happen by accident. I wish The President would focus more on the economy and developing an equitable & affordable 'stimulus program' that actually will work...;-) -s2
